Glucose test question

ok on Jan 2 i have to drink pure sugar..as i have sugar issues.. my sugar goes low w/out letting me know im hungry..then i get irritable. Well if I have too much sugar I get nauseated..so after they've done the test what do u recommend to balance me back out? Im not sure I think its a good idea to throw that much sugar on an empty stomach. :/

Honestly if you know it's an issue you might want to take someone with you or at least have someone else drop/pick you up. I'm sure it's not common but I have heard its possible to vomit or pass out. Not trying to scare you but that's why they told me I had to stay in waiting room and couldn't leave during test

I had the glucose test early on because my bmi was high. I told them that I was suffering from really bad morning sickness and was told that if I vomit I would have to start again. They didn't really seem to care to much, they were running behind so I had to wait an hour or so before they took my blood and drank the drink so it was well after lunch before I got out of there.

The best way to control your sugar ups and downs is to eat higher protein diet and omit concentrated sweets and carbohydrates. Try to eat fruit instead of cakes or other high sugar content foods. Ask to speak to a dietitian at your next appointment. I have the same problem...this was going on way before pregnancy though.

The one hour isn't so bad, just eat something high protein right after, also drink lots if water. The three hour is much worse, I almost threw up twice, got extremely nauseous and sweaty and almost passed out. I was totally find for the one hour, but I fell asleep when I got home and had crashed when I woke up and had to eat high protein when I woke up to feel better. Take a protein bar with you to the clinic and eat it right after! And good luck, hope you pass and don't have to do the three hour.

be careful with the water, I drank a lot today before I went in (since I had a regular appointment as well and would need a urine sample) and I think it really made it worse. the doctors and nurses all told me protein helps balance it out so before you go in do some eggs or peanut butter
